Meta Music Videos

These are too funny.
The first gives us new lyrics to the Take On Me music video, by matching the words to exactly what happens on screen. If you were alive in the 80s, you know this song.
The next one is audio only, but is a song called Title of the Song, using a description of the words to a love song, rather than the actual words. You’ll see what I mean. The infectious laughing of the original hearers only helps.
